Back 2 School


(Reuters, 05-22-06)

It's Monday, so that means Condi is back at Stanford! Having tea parties with Thomas Sowell at the Hoover Club or whatever! It seems like she'll mostly be in her office "writing" her books, so that doesn't sound very hard. I hope Condi knows that PSP is here for her as a very orderly photo-op reference! I look forward to seeing the footnotes.

But! Hey! Professor Ferragamo will be teaching, too, and just what she'll be teaching sounds pretty familiar:

As a professor, Rice has said, she hopes to lead future courses on international politics, with a focus on decision-making. Specifically, she seeks to teach "decision simulation," where students are pressed to think about real-life questions and choices and not just abstract policy.


Ooh, that's really good: decision simulation. That should be the title of her book. What a great description of her last eight years!

Decision stimulation? Is that like when you ignore a warning and as a result, a horrific disaster happens, causing you to make rash, illegal decisions that in the end benefit you, but hurt most people?

Decision simulation? Of course, that's what she did for eight years, so she's an expert at it!

pardon my bad taste, but I can't help thinking that "decision simulation" is some kind of dildo.

Decision simulation! That goes well with simulating being the President.

Wow! No wonder it's so hard to write fiction! You just can't make up stuff like that!

"Decision Stimulation" . . . is that a fancy term for Cuddles 'n' Hugs?
